I've found that most of my favorite jazz albums are between 1957 and 1965. Of course, this was second-wave jazz, different from the bebop and swing that dominated the '30s and '40s.

Mingus Ah Um (1959)
Jimmy and Wes: The Dynamic Duo (1959)
Sketches of Spain (1963)
Getz/Gilberto (1964)

...and so on.
